Popup Coupon with JS?

[rgordon83]

Doing some SEM for my friend who has a sports ticket site and want to add a Java Script coupon that pops up with the coupon code. Should pop up on load with an "X" to close it.

Anyone know how to make one? is it hard? how much to make it for me if i provide the design?

Popups are usually blocked with most browser's default popup blockers. I would recommend doing a popup via AJAX style methods.

For example, using lightview. Lightview Click the inline/API example to get an idea of what I'm talking about.

This method of popup wouldn't be blocked by the usual popup blocker and looks nicer.

I use a DHTML pop up that doesn't get blocked. Not real pretty but it gets the job done. I've tried using GreyBox but guess I'm just not smart enough to get it to work.

Thanks for that link though. I'm gonna look into that and see if I can get it working. It does look a lot nicer.

If you don't feel like paying for a license to that above, google thickbox and see if you can modify it for your needs (I've done so for a few clients).

that looks sweet. But where is the inline/API example?
